Site Crap
Halloween Skin
10.31.08 | Permalink | Comment?

I’ve recently changed the site slightly so it looks a bit more organized but it just took me a couple of minutes to totally re-design the skin for Halloween. It’s pretty pimp that the site looks completely different for events in a short space of time.

I feel like Nidzumi should get it on. Anyway I’ve got to go back and edit this so I’ve got an infinte loop for the picture.

Mix coming tonight, if my internet stays stable.

Happy Halloween & Sisters Birthday
Music
144Gb’s of Mp3 Player
10.29.08 | Permalink | Comment?

My Zune broke the other day. For the 2nd time in as many months and I’ve decided that I’m done with it. It’s a shame because it’s a slick mp3 player with a great interface. Yeah sure you can’t use it on os/x and you have to use the Zune Software but otherwise it’s great.

Except they tend to crap out on you easily. Oh well. So impulsivly I decided to buy the Creative X-Fi 32Gb because it was dirt cheap. Then Dave got his iPod Touch on and I was so impressed I decided to get one of those as well. I’m using the touch because it makes a lot more sense. The Wi-Fi and app makes it better than most mp3 players on the market.

The Zune is getting repaired and the Zen is getting sold so I thought I’d take a picture that encapsulates my tendencies to spend money when I have it in three mp3 players.

Mix coming tomorrow

Fe Fi Fo Fum

Another weekly project that had us picking a rule of Typography and making a poster that would explain how to use them. The old saying Fe Fi Fo Fum was the first thing that came to mind for the second most popular ligature of f and i. The first being the ampersand which is actually e and t.

Don’t say you never learn anything from Blogizzle.

Site Crap
A Web 2 Enabled Post

So I’ve spruced up the blog a little and I mean a little. I remember Tom saying that he liked the layout but it was slightly confusing as it was just mad text everywhere. Well those weren’t his exact words but you get the idea. So I’ve made it a little more sensical by dividing up the sidebar and the content. It makes sense right? It looks ok for now but I might wake up tomorrow and change it. If that’s the case this post so far makes no sense.

I’ve also decided to take full advantage of my new iPod Touch by getting crazy apps that are very W2. I’ve found my log in details for Twitter and aim to use that with the Twitterific app. Also I’ve never really used iTunes because it’s pain unless you buy all your music on iTunes but now I’ve been forced to with my first iPod. So I’ve gone whole hog by downloading and setting up last.fm. So you can see that I’ve been listening to Art Brut for an hour now. Score?

I was also looking back on how the site used to look on The Wayback Machine but it doesn’t save CSS so it’s a bit crap to look at. That’s a serious flaw if you ask me. It would have made a nice post with all the previous designs of the site. Luckily I’ve got a few load logos and that.

Anywhoo I’ve got some work to post tomorrow as well as that mix (I’ll stop teasing you Sam, I will post it plz)
